Angle's Slave


Wufei pushed Trowa away and went to pick up Duo from out of the tiny boat. It looked like it took him no effort, like it was nothing.

Even thought the two boys were about the same height, Duo could barely stand on his toes when Wufei picked him up.

"Nanashi is not your name. You're not from this village."

"Who said I can't name myself Nanashi? Have you checked the international laws? I have my rights. Plus I don't think that even you have a registered name." Retorted the agravaited Duo.

"Mister, please don't say anything that might anger Wufei." Trowa said, slightly worried.

Duo was extremly uncomfortable standing on his tip-toes, so he glared at Wufei. Wufei didn't like this so he slapped him to make him stop. Duo was extremly angry. He slapped Wufei back, twice.

"Why did you hit me?" Wufei asked, eyes glowing.

"You deserved it. If you didn't make me stand on my toes then I probably wouldn't even have had the chance to hit you."

Wufei dropped him, then started yelling at Trowa. "Why didn't you tell me to let him go?"

"Hai, it's all my fault Wufei." Trowa agreed, head hanging.

"It's not your fault! It's Wufei's fault. Don't listen to him Trowa!" Duo screached.

"So you're a fighsty one." Wufei sneered.

"I don't like to fight unlike someone over here."

"We shouldn't be fighting at all. We should act like a family, since we're something of one." Came a voice from behind.

"Quatre, please don't start with that again. I've heard that speech thousands of times." Wufei roled his eyes.

Duo turned around to see a small blond. He had innocent blue eyes that showed sadness and wisdom , older the his own years. He still didn't understand why Wufei was scared of a harmless little blond.

"You just hit Trowa before, so why didn't you do that when Quatre showed up?" Duo was curious.

"He'll write about me in the newspaper. I don't want that. You should know, I don't get along with the other villagers very well." Duo roled his eyes.

"I was just asking you not to be mean to people. I mean no real harm. If the world had less people like you, our ancestors wouldn't have to hide here, and if you continue thinking that everything you do is right, continue to hit poor Trowa over there, then I'll really show you what it means to be a journalist." Came the little blond's reply.

"Ok Quatre. How is it, that over these thousands of years of human civilzation, the basic insticts never change? Like Trowa over there, he listens to almost everybody. He would do anything if told. Trowa? You really have to change." Wufei stated.

"At least he has good intentions." Retorted Duo.

"So even if he has good intentions what do you do with them? We all make the circle complete. And without Trowa, there wouldn't be anyone like Wufei." Quatre said.

Duo was deep in thought. 'With people around like Wufei, they could kill other people like little Quatre with three puches. Why is Wufei scared of Quatre writing about him in the paper?'

Before Duo could finish his thought, Qautre kicked Wufei. He landed right into the freezing water.
'Quatre has more strenght then I thought.' He just watched, wide-eyed.

It was as if Quatre heard his thoughts. "Duo, without the strength inside your heart you can't do a thing for anyone, even yourself. The thing I hate most in the world, are people who abuse their power. My strength comes in the form of my writing. When others lift a pen, they can't write anything down. My real choice in any fight, is to use my strength. It seems that I get slightly depressed everytime I use my strenght though."

Suddenly a boy who looked just like Wufei, only a little chubbier, joined them, clapping furiously. "I love it To be able to see Wufei so helpless in the water. Quatre, you've given me enough entertainment for the entire day. I will keep running the newspaper, and you, my good man, might watch your criticism of me.

"Money will never buy me Sam! If you do anything wrong, I'll still write about you and your backstabing deals!"

"If it wasn't for me, going outside and keeping with all the business, this village would be nothing. Do you know what my intentions really are? If it wasn't for this village, I wouldn't have to go outside to kiss up to other's. Without money, how would you have bought that printer of yours? Without money, where would the village medicines be? Would we have any of these things? I have to tell you, I don't enjoy sucking up to others."

"I know how a poor person feels, but justice seems to sometimes look the other way." Quatre said.

"Quatre, if you would use your physical strength and destroy every enemy, even in this village, then you wouldn't have to write like the slave you are." Sam replyed.

"No Sam, we shouldn't use violence. We're all a part of this family. To make it worse, we're living out here with no tv, no radio, and no communications of anykind, so if the entire village died, nobody in the outside world would even know." Came a coublt-eyed youth.

"Kenji. I was thinking, this village can't stay isolated forever. You don't know a thing except for loving yourself. It's a very good thing I'm opimistic, otherwise I would be like Quatre over there."

Sam gave Duo a big wad of money. "You're going to need a new tuxedo. Here use this to buy it."

"No thanks Sam. I don't need your money." Duo declined.

"Ok fine. Give it back to me. I'm more of a city rat anyway, I should keep this. I'm not even close to being like the others."

"You're not a city rat. You only want the others to be happy." Duo pointed out.

"Thank you Duo, but I am a street rat. If it wasn't for me watching the village's economy, I wouldn't be standing in front of you right now. And I have to thank Kenji. I go out there, he stays in here. I leave to earn money, and he gives the money out in our village."

"Oi Kenji? Why don't you go outside and be a movie star, or something? You look clean cut enough Kenji, hell I would be your fan. And you could earn at least one million a year." Duo bluntly stated.

"Why would he be an actor? He's not that handsome. I would be surprised if people would even go to his movies." Sneered a boy that walked up behind them. He looked just like Kenji, except for his clothes.

Kenji decided to keep quite. Sam gave the new kid a look while handing stranger a good bit of money. "Don't write any of your sneaky little reports to Relena. Ok, Johnny?"

Duo saw the money while watching Johnny. "Johnny, that's not right. You shouldn't betray others like that. Sam, I said I didn't want it!"

"If I don't give the money away, Relena won't let me go outside to work on the businesses." Sam pointed out.

Johnny sneered again. "Sam is a traitor. I'm only giving him a choice to either live or die."

"You guys are so stupid. Who would be a snitch? That's extremely elementery like." Duo roled his eyes.

Johnny's jaw droped. "Who the hell is he? Who bought him here? He's not from this village. He could be a spy. Besieds, he dresses weird." He shouted.

"I bought him here. It's not his fault, and I will take full responsibility for him." Trowa said softly, after staying slient for a few moments.

"It's not Trowa's fault. He saved me from the strom." Duo jumped in, not wanting Trowa to get involved.

"It's not your place to talk in this village. You don't belong here, so shut up." Kenji glared.

Quatre, who looked like he was on the verge of tears, spoke up. "He is too from this village! His name is Duo Nanashi."

"That's not his name, and he's not from this village. Besides he's too ugly to stay here." Kenji struck again.

The fact is that Duo had been praised for his esquisite beauty all his life. He was appaled at the brash man's statement. "From all the people I've ever met, in my entire life, you're the ugliest of them all. And I'm not just talking about your physical looks. It's the inside that discusts me."

Kenji spoke softly. "It's not his fault that he is ugly."

"If only you guys were twins. What I mean is that, he should be like you, not you looking like him."

"We are twins. Johnny is my onni-chan (1). He was out five minutes before I was." Kenji stated, showing no expression.

"Oh, then I guess it's his own heart that made him look so ugly." Duo thought about the conversation.

"Actually, we're all brothers, except for Quatre. He's adopted, so naturaly we should act like a family."

"And were is this Relena? Is she still alive?" Duo inquired.

There was only slience.

Kenji finally spoke, breaking the band. "It's not that easy to see Relena. I'm the only one who can see her. Trowa, take Duo to where he belongs."

"Let me do it." Came a husky voice from the habor.
